“…However, negative attitudes such as stigmatizing, stereotyping and discrimination may impact on motivation to participate in social activities with others. Studies reporting on the relationships between parents and children with DCD suggest that family members often experience frustration and anxiety over the child's inability to manage simple tasks [49,103]. As a result, children with DCD are likely to believe that they are disappointing their parents, which may worsen their feelings of low self-worth [6].…”

Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is classified as a heterogeneous disorder of motor learning and functioning. The purpose of this paper is to critically analyse the current knowledge of DCD using the International Classification of Functioning and Disability Framework (ICF) model of disability. Since DCD is diagnosed on the basis of functional problems, we discuss the relationships between known activity limitations and participation restrictions, impairments of body structure and function, and contextual factors associated with these functional limitations. We conclude that the manifestation of both the primary and secondary problems seen in DCD are dependent on the integrity, capacity and adaptability of cognitive and neuromotor structures. We assert that personal and environmental factors either facilitate or restrict skill acquisition and learning. Understanding the interaction between individual and contextual factors is, thus, fundamental to designing interventions that address primary functional problems and ameliorate the development of health and psychosocial impairments in DCD.

“…These authors concluded that the level of detail needed for a richer description of the functioning of a patient does not yet exist within the ICIDH or the ICF classification systems. Segal, Mandich, Polatajko, and Valiant-Cook (2002) described an application of the ICF in occupational therapy in the United States, a pilot study of stigma and its management, in which ICF codes were used to examine parental perceptions of the experiences of children with developmental coordination disorders. The analysis revealed that the parents believe that their children's impairments restrict their participation in society.…”

This article reviews the literature from the 3 years since the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health's (ICF's) endorsement, focusing on those articles that discuss (a) what the ICF means and how it can be used; (b) the general utility of the ICF for specific fields, such as nursing, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and audiology; (c) examples of applications for classification in particular disorders, such as chronic health conditions, neuromusculoskeletal conditions, cognitive disorders, mental disorders, sensory disorders, and primary and secondary conditions in children; (d) uses of the ICF to recode prior work across multiple surveys and across country coding schemes on disability-related national survey items; and (e) governmental uses of the ICF in the United States and selected countries abroad. Future directions needed to effectively implement the ICF across rehabilitation policy, research, and practice are discussed.This article reviews the literature in psychology and health and human services, and rehabilitation more generally, from the 3 years since the endorsement of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). For this review, we narrowed our searches to articles focused on clinical research or specific implementations of the Bruyère , VanLooy, & Peterson The ICF: Contemporary Literature Overview ICF. Most available articles on the ICF discuss its utility for specific groups or particular research areas. The overview of current literature presented here is not exhaustive but rather illustrative of current applications of the ICF to research and practice.Our review suggests that the actual application of the ICF is as yet somewhat limited because the World Health Organization (WHO) endorsement is so recent; the earliest references using the ICF correspond with the WHO's 2001 endorsement. Standardized application of the ICF in North America has yet to be realized in anticipation of the release of the clinical implementation manual (see Reed et al., 2005); thus, it is not surprising to find limited research on clinical implementation of the ICF. From our review of the literature and of unpublished reports, it seems clear that the ICF is being used in a preliminary fashion to inform conceptual frameworks in research and for recoding data from other health classifications. Recently completed and ongoing research has undoubtedly not yet been published.In this review, we cluster articles by the following areas: (a) what the ICF means and how it can be used; (b) general utility of the ICF for specific fields, such as nursing, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and audiology; (c) examples of applications for classification in particular disorders, such as chronic health conditions, neuromusculoskeletal conditions, cognitive disorders, mental disorders, sensory disorders, and primary and secondary conditions in children; (d) uses of the ICF to recode prior work across multiple surveys and across country coding...

“…Os resultados deste estudo apontam associação de provável TDC com sinais de TDAH (Tabela 2), especialmente dos tipos desatento e combinadodesatenção com hiperatividade, o que também é apontado na literatura internacional 3,[6][7][8][9] . Em estudo realizado no Brasil, Cardoso et al 16 observaram que, considerando a frequência de TDAH, com base em respostas de professores ao SNAP-IV, dentro do grupo TDC, 41,2% mostraram sinais de TDAH: seis crianças com TDC (17,6%) exibiam sinais de déficit de atenção, uma (2,9%) apresentou sinais de hiperatividade/impulsividade, sete (20,7%) apresentaram sinais de TDAH combinado, 18 (52,9%) não apresentaram sinais de TDAH e dois (5,9%) não retornaram os questionários.…”

“…Geralmente a criança tem inteligência normal, mas os problemas de coordenação motora grossa e fina podem interferir no rendimento escolar e em atividades de vida diária (AVD)¹ , ². Os traços mais comuns de se observar nessas crianças são problemas na habilidade motora fina, função motora grossa, coordenação geral e controle durante a execução do movimento, dificuldade para executar atividades típicas da infância como jogar bola, escrever, andar de bicicleta, vestir roupas, amarrar cadarços e utilizar tesoura, talheres e outros utensílios domésticos, atrapalhando desta forma a execução das AVD, atividades de brincar e tarefas escolares 2,3,4,5 . Além dos problemas de coordenação motora que refletem no cotidiano da criança, podem ser percebidas co-ocorrências associadas como a obesidade, problemas de saúde mental e o transtorno do déficit de atenção e hiperatividade (TDAH), podendo trazer mais prejuízos funcionais 3,6,7,8,9 . Estudos epidemiológicos indicam que a prevalência de TDC pode variar de 5 a 9% em crianças em idade escolar, sendo que a maior parte delas é do sexo masculino, não importando o nível socioeconômico¹ 0 .…”

Objetivos: Investigar a prevalência de dificuldades de coordenação motora em crianças de 7 e 8 anos, em escolas municipais de João Pessoa/PB; e verificar se há associação entre dificuldades motoras e déficit de atenção e hiperatividade e nível socioeconômico. Método: Foram avaliadas 535 crianças com o Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire (DCDQ-Brasil), o Questionário Classificação Econômica Brasil e o Swanson, Nolan and Pelham IV Scale (SNAP-IV). Estatística descritiva foi utilizada para caracterizar amostra e teste qui-quadrado foi utilizado para verificar associação entre as variáveis. Resultados: Respostas dos pais ao DCDQ-Brasil apontam que 253 crianças (47,2%) apresentam dificuldades de coordenação motora. Foi observada associação das dificuldades de coordenação motora com déficit de atenção e hiperatividade, e com o nível socioeconômico. Conclusões: Resultados apontam prevalência considerável de problemas de coordenação motora em crianças de 7 e 8 anos, e associação desses problemas com TDAH e com nível socioeconômico.
